Natural Resources recognizes
commitment of wetland owners
The Ministry of Natural. Resources has
been evaluatingwetlands across southern
Ontario since 1983 in order to determine
the state of the.:remaining wetland
resources. Over 2000 sites'were 'examin-
ed and evaluated using a standard
classification system..
In the Wingham District, 173 wetland
complexes have been identified and
evaluated: A ' complexis a.' . group of
wetlands that -have similar features
and/or function as a unit. Only .17' of
these complexes were determined to be
of regional . ok provincial significance
(Classes 1: to 3). These complexes com-
prise 213 individual wetlands with an
.area of 37,000 acres (15,000 hectares).
Most of the significant wetlands are in
• private ownership; . The , Ministry has
• • begun a program to contact these lan-
downers to explain the importance and
values of the wetlands, the threats and
impacts to: them and to recognize the Ian -
,
downers . for their contribution . to On
tarie's natural heritage. The wetland lan-
downer contact program began in early
1989. As of March 1990, 343 of the more
than 1200 .landowners had been con-
tracted. Twenty-five certificates have
been presented .to landowners in recogni-
tion of their commitment to protect their
w etlands.
The wetland landowner contact Pro-
gram
ro
gram will continue over the next few
years With support from Ducks Unlimited
and Wildlife Habitat Canada, in conjunc-
tion with the Ministry of ` Natural
Resources and the Natural Heritage
League. Responsible private land
stewardship, recognizing the need to
become a` caretaker of ` the land, is
necessary if Ontario's natural heritage is
to be preserved for future generations.
